10:10 pm
start by lowering tax rates 20% for everyone. it's a major tax cut that the non-partisan tax policy center said that they will cost the federal budget $480 billion a year. roughly $5 trillion over ten years. but romney and running mate paul ryan say they will offset those costs by reducing tax reductions. they won't say which ones. that's to be worked out with congress. but they promise that they will only target the rich. >> deny those loopholes to higher income taxpayers so that more of their income is taxed, which has a broader base of the taxation. >> am i rambling? >> reporter: in theory there is plenty of money to be found in tax deductions. $1.1 trillion a year, but the most valuable deductions, they don't just benefit the rich. the tax-free benefits that workers received when they pay for health insurance, the tax deduction for mortgage interest and the tax-free payments that
